Tokyo Skies (Linkyop)
"10k subs special. :)"
Tokyo Skies is a Project Arrhythmia level created by Linkyop. It was created to celebrate 10000 subscribers on his YouTube channel. The level is themed after Just Shapes and Beats, with some parts in particular resembling its level with this song. Additionally, both Linkyop’s character Irqus and Linkyop himself make cameo appearances.
Layout
Opening
The level starts with a perimeter slowly forming around the screen using multiple squares, while snakes come from the right and left occasionally. Some of the squares then begin to spit out bullets, then being replaced by another square in the same position. After that, vertical beams start appearing, as some of the squares detach from the outer ring and form a circle in the center.
Checkpoint 1
The circle in the center begins firing bombs, as more squares detach from the ring and go into the circle. Snakes will also begin appearing from the right and left, as well as the bullets coming from some of the squares returning. Separate bombs also start to explode, as well as the vertical beams returning.
Checkpoint 2
Four circles appear at the corners of the screen, and slowly get bigger, as well as the middle circle. The circles are then replaced with two circles in the middle, getting bigger as beams come out of them. Bombs and circles then start spewing bullets, as well as some of the squares on the right side begin detaching, all of them exploding near the end of the part. This part is then repeated on the left side, all while beams continue firing vertically.
Checkpoint 3
Games that Linkyop has played in the past begin appearing and disappearing, while a sub count in the center increases to 10000, the milestone this level is supposed to be celebrating. During this checkpoint, occasional bullets also come from the ground.
Checkpoint 4
Irqus appears on the screen, talking about how he's just passing by, as bullets with trails fly horizontally. Beams coming out of Irqus and bullets coming from the right then add on. Finally, bullets coming out of the outer squares come in.
Checkpoint 5
The previous checkpoint is essentially repeated, but the bullets switch from horizontal to vertical. The theme also changes during the checkpoint, from the normal JS&B theme to white and blue, Linkyop's main colors.
Final Checkpoint
Linky appears in the center of the screen, talks a little, then bails out on the player. Finally, the credits are shown, with Linkyop thanking everyone for the support.
Trivia
- The level was released after Linkyop reached 11k subs, even though this is for his 10k subs.
